Yes -- this has many possibilities. I prefer being the Yojimbo rather than the man with no name so I think that Yojimbo Squire is just fine for now.

Lars Posted October 19, 2001 Share Posted October 19, 2001 Hey Slappy, did you go with Yo Jim Bo so that you would fit in with Bo & Duke Luke down there in South Carolina? Should have gone with Roscoe P. Coltrane with your lame cop talk. Or perhaps Enos. Berli, I hope you have your pointy-toed steel tips on today.

I learned in training that you often have to simplify your speech when conversing with someone from MN, and use things like rubber balls, toy dolls, and crayons to make sure they understand. If you are more comfortable with Dukes of Hazzard references than Kurosawa references, then I think it is perfectly acceptable to translate them in your own head.

Joe Shaw Posted October 19, 2001 Author Share Posted October 19, 2001 Ah Berli, it's started already. You see Slapdragon (I'm pretty confident that I'll be returning to my favorite Slopdraggin' all too soon) is apparently unclear on some of the finer points of the Knight / Squire relationship. Witness: <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>The Yojimbo Squire offers his services to the two waring parties, Berli and Joe Shaw.... (And I thought it was fun btch slapping idiots on the outer board, it may be more fun here!!!)<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> He is apparently unaware that your own fine self has recently completed a match with me which resulted in a humiliating loss ... for YOU. But then he refers to you as an "idiot" and suggests that he should be "bitch slapping" you. But wait friends, that's not all, at no extra charge we can provide you with this lovely additional quote: <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>I think of you Berli as the wimpy son ...<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Berli ... the toe, remember the toe first to put them on the ground and THEN you can use the heel if you prefer.

Croda Posted October 19, 2001 Share Posted October 19, 2001 Don't ask me for turns. There was a guy who used to post here a ways back. I think he was the guy who created that bizarre map where you actually raced M8s across minefields. It was actually a race. Really bizarre. Anyway, he was a Gulf War vet and had a really interesting website about his Counter Battery Artillery Batallion on Iraq. I was looking for the website. It was in his sig file. If I can find his name, I can find him. Thought it was Bullethead...nope. Any help? By the way, it smells better here now that the french are gone. Of course Stuka's still getting stains on the Divan, I see. Stuka, how is the pretty little wife of yours and when is she going to come visit me again?

I just wrote that bit about the file 'maybe having been lost on the way to you' as a way of being polite, giving you a chance to save face. No one else 'doesn't get' my files. The latest turn I sent to you was on Wednesday morning. I have it documented. You, Sir, are a slacker and a footdragger, and on top of that you are a lying, overweening boastful, pretentious scoundrel, and you SUCK at CM. Ha! Who would have guessed the mighty Slapdragon, Squire of Berli couldn't tell a bazooka from a stovepipe hat. URRGGGHHHH....now I have to go get my bloodpressure medicine.

Agua Perdido Posted October 19, 2001 Share Posted October 19, 2001 <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Croda: Don't ask me for turns. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Dammit, where the hell's my tu-- Oh, uh, never mind. UPDATES! It's awfully quiet while I wait for jdmorse to attack. Very quiet. Quieter than normal. Really, really quiet. Unnaturally, even disturbingly quiet. Dare I say it? Too quiet. Actually, we may've either blundered into each other or not, but I haven't watched the latest turn. stevetherat is a bastard, but at least I finally killed one of his gamey, edge-hugging, code-hacked Comet IVs (that's right, Comet IVs... bastard). Seanachai has gone to Disneyland (which, sadly, is not some euphemism for being torn apart by wild bagders, eaten by vultures, and finally pooped into a paper-pulp processing vat and made into Celine Dion album covers). I'll have to delay returning his setup that much longer so he'll realize that I'm stalling. I'll get to replying to Lars and his setup right after Seanachai's... Joe Shaw is an effete GirlyWuss who's too chicken to rush blindly through the bocage like a real ManlyMan. He's tiptoeing around like a shoeless spinster on a freshly-Zambonied ice rink. How I loathe him and his.... Canadians. And it's a good thing Croda disappeared when he did (heck, it was just a good thing he disappeared), since the very next turn would have seen my Pincers of Attritionist Doom finally put paid to his gamey manhooverist fallschirmgerbils. Hate the rest of you pillocks, too, especially since I ran out of Sapphire last night. Agua Perdido [Edited to plow under a patch of flowering Uberwort bushes.

How odd no one else has a problem getting turns from me (well, once in a while I will send therat's turn to Dorosh but what the hell). Still, my plan to cross all that open ground is progressing, even if you are to much of a dolt to see it. How nice to have doltishness confirmed. Why don't you come out and see what for matilda?

Like duh! Such a schoolboy blunder warrents the spoon if you ask me. Tush! If you were trying to do the unexpected, you succeeded. Luckily, 'unexpected' does not map isomorphically with 'unplanned for'. Anyhow, (trying to be constructive) maybe you could try leapfrogging in all the shellholes? I'll run a creeping barrage backwards, walking towards my positions, shifting to follow your lead units. That way, when they break, they can run to the shellholes, and thus avoid my long range direct fire weaponry. See what a helpful and cooperative guy I am?
